A housing scheme in Islamabad has roped in Turkish actor Engin Altan Duzyatan aka Ertugrul Ghazi as its brand ambassador. 

Engin played the lead role in popular Turkish TV series Diriliş: Ertuğrul and became a household name in Pakistan soon after the historical play was aired in Pakistan on the special instructions of Prime Minister Imran Khan. 

The Blue World City management announced via their official Facebook page on Monday that the Ertugrul hero has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to work as brand ambassador for the housing project. Ertugrul Ghazi and Blue World City CEO Saad Nazir signed an agreement to formalise the contract.

The management of the Islamabad-based housing scheme had announced earlier that Engin would also attend the ground-breaking ceremony of the Blue World City’s Blue Mosque as a special guest. The actor was issued a multiple-entry six-month visa for Pakistan last month and he is expected to arrive in Pakistan this month. He is also scheduled to attend a number of other events as part of his engagements in Pakistan.

The Blue World City’s management says the Blue Mosque is set to become an ‘exceptional prayer facility’ as it is modelled after Istanbul’s iconic Blue Mosque.
